One of the more fun parts of horseracing: paddock schooling. It’s often the final step before a horse runs in the afternoon – a quick tour of the paddock to get used to the sights and sounds. It’s always interesting to see how horses react to different paddocks … Pimilico is covered, Churchill is a smallish circle with open-air stalls, Del Mar is closed-wall stalls with a large circle with a big grass patch center, etc.
Tuesday saw many horses from the Craig Dollase barn, plus a few Carla Gaines, Jerry Hollendorfer, and Bobby Troeger. For more info on these and pretty much every horse running in SoCal, New York, and New Jersey (plus Kentucky and Florida soon), check out GradeOneRacing).
